The problem I solve

- ✕ A business running entirely on word-of-mouth with no way to be found
- ✕ No site at all, or one built years ago on a builder nobody can edit
- ✕ Enquiries lost because there is nowhere obvious to make contact

Quick answer

A local service business website costs around $700 for a landing page or $1,500 for a full site, and its job is to catch the people who heard your name and went looking, plus those searching for the service in your area. Photos of real jobs outperform stock imagery in this category.

## How I approach it

Most local service businesses grow on referrals and hit a ceiling: the work is good, but nobody new can find it. A website does not replace word-of-mouth — it catches the people who heard your name and went looking, and the people searching for the service in your area.

So the structure is simple and specific: what you do, where you do it, what the work looks like, and how to get a quote. Photos of actual jobs beat stock images every time in this category, and if you do not have them yet, the site is built so they drop in later without a redesign.

It is built in Framer so you can update it yourself — change a price, add a photo, update your service area — without needing a developer for a ten-minute edit. That matters more here than in almost any other category.

Common questions

## Questions, answered

01 How much does a website cost for a small local business?

A landing page is $700 and a full multi-page site typically $1,500, agreed as a fixed price before work starts, with no hourly billing.

02 I don't have any photos of my work yet. Is that a problem?

No. The site can launch using well-chosen free stock imagery from libraries like Unsplash and Pexels, built so your own job photos drop straight in later without needing a redesign.

03 Will I be able to update it myself?

Yes. It is built in Framer, so changing text, prices, service areas or photos is drag-and-drop — no code and no developer needed for small edits.

04 Will it help me show up in search?

That is a large part of the point. Service and service-area pages, clean structure and answer-engine setup are included, so both search engines and AI assistants can tell what you do and where you do it.
